Book Description
THE SEASONS WITHIN is an eye-opening debut novel that compels the reader to trust the unfamiliar, the unknown...to trust for that is when you shall receive. Jonathon has only just moved to New Zealand, the outlook for him feels as bleak as the frozen winter landscape until he befriends local boy Taylor. United by their youthful curiosity and appetite for mystery, they are drawn relentlessly to their meeting place- an eerie park that conceals unearthly secrets. There, under the guidance of a reclusive sage, they are given insights into Nature and the human condition as they are initiated into the Ancient Chinese teachings known as 'the Elements of Man'. The unlikely pair are propelled on a powerful quest for understanding where they encounter mystical creatures and energies. With the unfolding of the seasons, the secrets of the park and of Nature itself, are revealed to them as they teeter towards a test of their own faith and courage. The Seasons Within meshes past and present, the physical and metaphysical, to produce an enchanting tale that illuminates as it entertains.

Book Description
The family from Secrets of the Garden are back in a new book about backyard science that explains why the seasons change. Alice and her friend Zack explore the reasons for the seasons. Alice's narrative is all about noticing the changes as fall turns into winter, spring, and then summer. She explains how the earth's yearlong journey around the sun, combined with the tilt in the earth's axis, makes the seasons happen. Alice's text is clear and simple, and experiential. Two very helpful—and very funny—chickens give more science details and further explanation through charts, diagrams, and sidebars. Packed with sensory details, humor, and solid science, this book makes a complicated concept completely clear for young readers—and also for the many parents who struggle to answer their kids' questions! "Several adults of my acquaintance . . . would find Secrets of the Seasons to be an eye-popping revelation." —John Lithgow, The New York Times Book Review

Book Description
The late 1970s were Britain's years of strife and the good life. They saw inflation, riots, the peak of trade union power - and also the birth of home computers, the rise of the ready meal and the triumph of a Grantham grocer's daughter who would change everything. Dominic Sandbrook re-creates this extraordinary period in all its chaos and contradiction, revealing it as a turning point in our recent history, where, in everything from families and schools to punk and Doctor Who, the future of the nation was being decided. 'A brilliant historian.' A. N. Wilson, Spectator 'Magnificent . . . If you lived through the late Seventies - or, for that matter, even if you didn't - don't miss this book.' Mail on Sunday 'Entertaining, engaging, masterful, a joy . . . as a storyteller, Sandbrook is superb.' Sunday Telegraph 'Sandbrook has rummaged deep into the cultural life of the era to remind us how rich it was, from Bowie to Dennis Potter, Martin Amis to William Golding.' The Times 'While Sandbrook punctures some of our favourite myths . . . what makes this book such a pleasure is the sheer, unashamed nostalgia it evokes.' Daily Telegraph 'Compulsively readable . . . Sandbrook is right to argue that the 1970s was the moment when our century arrived.' Guardian

Book Description
Claudia Manta: Născută în București în anul 1969, Claudia este licențiată în Drept și, după practicarea avocaturii în Baroul București, emigrează în Canada în 1996. După o perioadă de adaptare în țara adoptivă, Claudia are șansa să lucreze cu un reputat avocat – Gerald Sternberg – într-o casă memorială monument istoric de pe Charles Street, în metropola Toronto. Anii petrecuți în biroul de avocatură, frumusețea și ineditul orașului au fost sursa de inspirație pentru multe dintre poemele create. Mamă a doi băieți extraordinari, și-a dedicat viața familiei și soțului pe care l-a urmat in Canada, deși sufletul ei a rămas întodeauna liric și românesc. Literatura română și dorul de țară nu au părăsit-o niciodată. Born in Bucharest in 1969, Claudia obtained her Law degree and, after practicing law in the Bucharest Bar, she immigrated to Canada in 1996. After a period of adaptation in the adopted country, Claudia had the chance to work with a prominent lawyer—Gerald Sternberg—in a bohemian memorial house and historical monument on Charles Street, in Downtown Toronto. The years spent in the law office, the beauty and uniqueness of the city were the source of inspiration for many of her poems. The mother of two extraordinary boys, she dedicated her life to her family and her husband who she followed to Canada, although her soul has always remained lyrical and Romanian. Romanian literature and her longing for her native country have never left her.
